DId you mean Araeococcus flagellifolius ?

hdd, this is how I've always spelled it. Bought it from Bullis a few months back and that is how they spell it too. I looked up your spelling and it appears to be one in the same plant!!!???

Is there some small difference in these plants that I'm missing?

Did notice the leaves in the Flagellifolius are darker and the stem holding the berries is white instead of the red stem in the flavifloius.

I think it could be a wrong spelling, as I can not find any valid of the sientific name of Araeococcus flavifloius in the 'Index Kewensis' site. There is another two name in this genus that sound alike A.flagellifolius and A.parviflorus, and I don't think it's a hybrid.

Patris, I'm going with the mis-spelled theory.
Flavifloius, and
Flagellifolius
are very close.A few letters here and there.And only flagellifolius appears in any Araeococcus species writeup.
If Bullis did make a spelling error,chalk it up to someone needing new reading glasses.
As for seed,I believe the sooner the better on using them.
But other experianced growers could better answer that question. Good hunting on your brom expedition today. Bob

Hmmm.... maybe "flavifloius" can't decide whether to be flagellifolius or parviflorus! I'm sure it must be one or the other, and checking the FCBS photos will tell you which one.

As far as the best time to sow seeds, Bob is right, the sooner the better. I've never tested them to find out how long they'll last, but I usually sow them as soon as I remove them from the plant. What I have heard is that if you do store them they'll last longer in a paper envelope than in a plastic bag or some other air-tight container.

Thanks, going to give it a try tomorrow. Will let ya'll know Monday what came up! LOL Optimist or just crazy?

Sorry, I didn't see your photo URL the first time. I agree with the others that it's A. flagellifolius.

I don't think anything's going to come up by monday, but maybe in a week or two you'll see some tiny green leaves.
